Sevilla moved back to
the top of the table with a 2-0 victory over Salamanca. Goals from
Héctor in the first half and an Olivera penalty in the second. They are
now one point ahead of Betis, who came from behind to draw 1-1 at
Elche thanks to an Amato goal in the second half, and two ahead of
Tenerife who drew 0-0 at ten man Sporting. The top three have
opened up a four point gap over fourth placed Salamanca.

Razov got a hat-trick for Racing Ferrol as they beat Compostela
0-5 to move out of the relegation zone, and Levante moved up to sixth
with two late Salillas goals to beat Córdoba 2-1.
Atlético Madrid slipped up again against fifth placed
Recreativo Huelva, and only an injury time goal by Mena from a free kick
salvaged a point. Each week it looks less likely that Atleti are going to
return to the top flight next season. (04.02.01) |
